    I visited this place last year for lunch and the quality of the food WAS amazing. Today I went for dinner and I was so disappointed. I don’t understand if the administration changed but the food was really bad. I ordered beef shawarma and got fajitas. The meat was over cooked not tender. My friend got kafta and it was dried with no flavor. I paid $190, after adding 20% tips without knowing that they included 20% for service without even asking me or informing. So ended up tipping 40% without being aware. I’m not going back!

    Stopped in at MeJana last minute getting into town late. They accommodated us so graciously. The food was delicious, well prepared, and presented. The waitstaff could not have been more welcoming and friendly. The neighborhood is lucky to have a restaurant such as this.

    Food was not good! Ordered our meal which was several shared plates and the items came out in less than 5 minutes (not exaggerating) - how could they have possibly prepared all of our items (most of which were warm appetizers) that quickly? They do validate parking

    Excellent Kibbeh Naye but otherwise very average Lebanese food, somewhat bland. Beef shawarma doesn’t taste how it’s supposed to. Very kind and good waiters but noisy outside, from restaurant across the street

    Venue and ambience were really very nice. Service and wait staff were outstanding! Food was definitely delicious but portions were very small for the price, especially if you are sharing the appetizers with a small group of friends. Arab culture is a very generous culture, I have traveled all over the Middle East… why not reflect that a little more?

    Best lamb chops I've ever had, though I don't blame you if you go simply to order multiple servings of the baked cheese appetizer with naan. My wife's beef kebab was cooked perfectly. Service great as always. Don't sleep on this place.

    Over priced for the size of the dishes. We were 7, ordered the journey for 4 + lots of side platters that were not in the journey and still came out hungry $700+ after. Ridiculous to say the least. I wont be going there anytime soon

    MeJana continues to deliver a consistently outstanding culinary experience. It serves best-in-class authentic Lebanese cuisine combining classic recipes with a fresh twist in a refined environment with attentive friendly service. With Lebanese and Mediterranean cuisine gaining popularity in the US and especially in the DC area with several worthy new entrants, MeJana remains the best of the best.

    I went to MeJana twice this week. First time, the meal was great. We ordered the Journey which was priced per person. Because of that experience I decided to go again for another business dinner. This time the food was mediocre at best and I’m not sure why other than we ordered starters to do a tapas style dinner however the food just wasn’t good. Not memorable like the first time. Food tasted a bit dry and perhaps old? The place was on the empty side and this was on a Thursday night. First dinner was on Tuesday. Service was good but annoying. Service folks kept coming to us asking if we wanted to order, habe more water, to clear out plants multiple times. I got the sense that they were either bored because the place was empty or because towards the end of the evening they wanted us to go. We left at around 8:30pm so apparently the place closes on the early side. Not an enjoyable experience the second time and probably won’t return.

    The Mejana food used to be the best Lebanese in town, at least for me, being Lebanese. I've been going there for many years. Today I was very surprised and disappointed that many of the menu items have been modified for the worse. The beloved lentil soup used to be a perfect mix of lentils, Swiss chard and potatoes, now consists of ground lentils in water. The batata harra is now curly fries with garlic on the side. Even halewet El jiben was stripped of its outer wrapping and is now just the cheese/ashta. Maybe these changes are liked by other customers but not for me.

    We like the restaurant and go there with some regularity. We went for Valentine’s Day and they had a price fix scaled down menu. I realize it is a busy night, but we went because we enjoy it and many of the dishes we enjoy were not available last night. We will be back, we will continue to enjoy, but will be a while before we go on a “special event” day. All that said, my wife and I enjoy the restaurant, the food and the service.
